I Am Amazed At the Universe

The aspect of order and disorder or entropy utterly fascinates me. I think all matter (including humans or even rocks) is defined by it's existence.

The meaning of life...is merely existence. And that anything formed is life and has a life-force. Humans are merely a mix of the sun and the earth, we are just another form of matter.

I know entropy is the basic universal force, however I wonder about the force of non-entropy or order. Why it exists? Where and why did that energy get unleashed? Actually thinking of this - because we are still in the expulsion and release of high energy.

@okaybut Hmmm...."Even in those physical systems where equilibrium could be relevant, (1) live systems cannot persist in isolation and (2) the second principle of thermodynamics does not require that free energy be transformed into entropy along the shortest path: live organisms absorb energy from sunlight or from energy-rich chemical compounds and finally return part of such energy to the environment as entropy (heat and low free-energy compounds such as water and CO2)."
